Implementing AR (Autoregressive) spectral estimation; Calculating & Comparing time and ensemble averages for white and colored Gaussian noise; Designing different Shaping filters using Toeplitz Recursion algorithm.

• Estimating the behaviour of Random Signals:

Studying the behaviour of random signals (Rayleigh, Rician, Nakagami etc.) and estimating the distribution of received random signal in presence of direct line of sight and in presence of background noise(multi-path scattering).

• Estimating the Variance and Sample Mean of a large Statistical Data (Random Signals):

Collecting the data using NI-PXI Lab View to study the behaviour of random signal by calculating its sample mean and variance then applying chi-square test to the estimated mean and variance to cross-verify the results.

• Digital Signal Processing:

Basic Matlab programming for calculating convolution, amplitude and phase of various signals; Reconstruction of signals (Nyquist Criterion); Applying different types of bandpass, bandreject and other FIR and IIR filters of nth order.

• Neural Networks:

Studying the conjugate gradient, steepest descent and orthogonal least squares (Schmidt Procedure) algorithms; Designing Functional Link Net (Volterra Filter); Perform Clustering using K-Means and Self Organizing Map (SOM) algorithms.

• MIMO (Multiple Inputs and Multiple Outputs) system simulation

Designed MIMO wireless systems and investigated the performance of spatial multiplexing with dual-polarized antennas and Rayleigh fading channel. Designed a 2X2 & 1X2 transmit diversity scheme using Alamouti Space time block code.

• Design of a UWB Communication system

Designed an Ultra-Wideband (UWB) communication system with the standard UWB channel model IEEE802.15.3a.

• Rate versus Power Control in IS-95 and CDMA2000:

Using Equal Power Allocation, Channel Inversion & Water-Filling Technique on SIMO, MISO, MIMO schemes and finding out the bit rate for variation in power allocation in both IS-95 and CDMA2000.
